Mark Ruffalo's 'Sympathy' On Track

Sympathy for Delicious
Mark Ruffalo's "Sympathy for Delicious" is coming back together. The indie feature, which is serving as Ruffalo's directorial debut and was to have had James Franco in the cast, fell into limbo after the December death of Ruffalo's brother, Scott.

The story, written by Christopher Thornton, follows a paralyzed DJ, struggling to survive on the streets of L.A., who turns to faith healing and mysteriously develops the ability to cure the sick -- although not himself. The DJ then decides to cash in on his gift in exchange for his rock 'n' roll dreams.
